New Boots in New Zealand by Gillian Orrell
A thirty-something, Gillian Orrell left a high-flying city career, travelled to New Zealand and took up the local past-time with the peculiar name, 'Tramping'. She discovered that it is a lot like hiking, but with some distinctive local twists. This book is a day-by-day account of all nine Great Walks.

Gillian Orrell studied modern history at Oxford University before working for nine years as a chartered accountant and management consultant in London. This book is about the end of all of that. Gillian is now a part-time consultant and writer and full-time environmentalist. She currently lives in Hexham, in England's least densely populated county, where most of the time there are enough good walking tracks and friendly people for her to be able to pretend that she is still in New Zealand.
